چکیده

BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathic pain is complicated and its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Calmodulin-dependent protein kinases (CaMKs) IV (CaMKIV), one of CaMKs, regulates several transcription factors in pain mechanisms. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a key mediator in diabetic neuropathic pain. This study aims to find the roles and mechanisms of CaMIV in diabetic neuropathic pain. METHODS Diabetic animal models were constructed by injecting with streptozotocin (STZ) intraperitoneally. They were randomly divided into seven groups (n = 6 per group): Naive, Normal Saline, STZ, STZ + Sham, STZ + DMSO and STZ + KN93 (an inhibitor of CaMKIV) (50 μg), STZ + KN93 (100 μg), which received KN93 (50 or 100 μg) intrathecally after the administration of STZ. Phospho-CaMKIV (pCaMKIV) and HMGB1 expression in rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and RAW264.7 cell line were measured by western blot. Distribution of pCaMKIV immune reactivity in different subpopulations of DRG neurons was measured by double-immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS The pCaMKIV and HMGB1 in DRG significantly increased after STZ administration, and pCaMKIV can regulate the expression of HMGB1 based on both cellular and animal models. Pretreatment with CaMKIV inhibitor attenuated STZ-induced mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia, as well as reduced HMGB1 expression in the DRG. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that CaMKIV can relieve STZ-induced diabetic neuropathic pain. The mechanism of this function depended on the process: pCaMKIV localized in the nuclei of DRG neurons and regulated HMGB1 which was an important mediator of neuropathic pain. These findings reported CaMKIV may be a potential target or important node in relieving diabetic neuropathic pain.

Allopregnanolone suppresses diabetes-induced neuropathic pain and motor deficit through inhibition of GABAA receptor down-regulation in the spinal cord of diabetic rats

Objective(s):Painful diabetic neuropathy is associated with hyperexcitability and hyperactivity of spinal cord neurons. However, its underlying pathophysiological mechanisms have not been fully clarified. Induction of excitatory/inhibitory neurotransmission imbalance at the spinal cord seems to account for the abnormal neuronal activity in diabetes. Protective properties of neurosteroids have b...
